Matolcsy György will remain in custody
The Budapest Court upheld the detention of György Matolcsy and two other suspects, rejecting their appeals. The court cited risks of them becoming unreachable due to potential severe penalties and their advantageous circumstances. Concerns were raised about their ability to influence evidence if released, supported by findings of related documents in one suspect's possession. The court dismissed the option of less severe measures, stating that house arrest would not prevent attempts to tamper with evidence. The risk of reoffending was also noted, particularly due to Matolcsy's likely informal leadership role in the alleged crimes.
